200. Commencement of sentence of imprisonment

(1)A sentence of imprisonment or of active service punishment in respect of an offence under Part VI shall run from the beginning of the day on which sentence was originally pronounced by the court-martial, or was originally awarded by the commanding officer or appropriate superior authority, as the case may be, subject to subsection (2).
(2)If, after being convicted or found guilty of an offence, a person is convicted or found guilty of another offence either before sentence is passed under the first conviction or before the expiration of that sentence, any sentence of imprisonment or active service punishment in respect of the subsequent conviction shall be executed after the expiration of the former sentence, unless the sentence is executed concurrently with the former sentence or any part thereof.
